You've only owned this car for a couple of months and already you're trying to rebuild the engine, and in a very shortcut kind of way.

Good luck.

Yes, based on the earlier post, this one had the makings of an adventure from the get-go!

I agree - it does appear that you jumped in with both feet very quickly and without a lot of real research/learning. However, I agree with the others, you can get there if you keep at it!

Good luck!
